x11/contour: Unbreak build on -CURRENT

clang with debug assertions enabled (on -CURRENT) crashes when it
tries to compile this port. As a workaround use clang from ports when
system clang has debug assertions enabled.

x11/contour: Update to 0.6.2.8008

While here, add patch to fix build with clang/libc++ 19.

libc++ 19 only provides std::char_traits for character types, which
causes compile errors when crispy::fnv is instantiated with non-char
types.

Restricting string-related overloads to char-only types, and adding a
generic trivially-copyable value hashing overload restore successful
builds on clang/libc++ 19.

x11/contour: use CMAKE_TESTING_ON to build unit tests instead of CMAKE_ON

Don't force everyone to build unit tests. Move devel/catch2 to test
